Entangled actress Phuthi Khomo has joined e.tv’s telenovela Imbewu: The Seed as Josina. Her character is Ngcolosi’s (Tony Kgoroge) fiancée from Mozambique. The beauty queen and former Muvhango actress will make her debut on Friday, 23 December at 9 PM.

City Press revealed in October that producers of e.tv telenovela Imbewu: The Seed allegedly resurrected dead characters Zimele “Ngcolosi” Bhengu and Fikile Bhengu, played by actors Tony Kgoroge and Phindile Gwala to boost ratings.

Kgoroge, who portrayed the character of Zimele “Ngcolosi” Bhengu, exited the show in 2020 while Gwala’s character Fikile was cut short in November 2021.

A crew member told the publication that Zimele will return and Kgoroge is allegedly back on set, filming for his grand return.

“Tony has started filming on set with the other actors for his return. They needed to bring him back because the viewership numbers are not doing very well and they had to bring him back.”

Another source revealed that former Muvhango actress Phindile Gwala-Ngandu whose character committed suicide a year ago has also returned.

“Phindile has a following that watches the show and her presence on the show was felt because of her fan base, plus she is a good-looking person, and a gap on the show was felt [after she left],” the source added.

“You are really playing with the viewer’s mind. Didn’t this character die? Please take us seriously, stop recycling people! You really need to think the story through to
